SUPPORTIVE

“I chose to return to the Honors LLC for my third year because I love the atmosphere. Honors LLC students are all really supportive of each other, the floor is clean and conducive for studying, and the residence hall is centrally located on campus.” ~Megan Lawrence

“I think it is important for students within the Honors Program to get to know one another, and I think the Honors LLC is the best way to do that. It is a quiet, safe, convenient environment, and it is one of the most welcoming halls on campus.” ~Nick Bigham
